France is certainly a good alternative for international students seeking quality education from abroad, but can't afford their studies in the USA, Canada, Australia or the UK. The country is home to a number of top universities, such EPITA School of Engineering and Computer Science, ECE Paris, and Audencia Business School,among others.

The place is ideal for students interested in technology and applied science, and for those seeking high-quality, affordable education and international work opportunities.

The France health insurance for international students is quite comprehensive and covers most of the facilities available like ambulance services, hospitalization or long-term care, doctor visits, medicines, specialist care and dental services. It does not cover the expenses related to chiropractors, osteopaths, or psychologist consultations, and certain non-essential medications. The general healthcare scheme will reimburse about 60% of your medical expenses through your social security number. You can also buy complimentary insurance called 'mutuelle' to get better reimbursements and wider coverage.
